Play Your Way™ in Ubisoft-Montréal's underrated masterwork made for patrician gamers, AKA "foxXxiest of the hounds" True Pacifist SSS rank Stealth Ghosts. Click all em heads with your tranqrifle/tazerpistol and press Q to freeze time to instantly&silently&immersively incapacitate anyone (up to and including big bad mechdudes and even the final boss), but don't use any of the loud murdertoys because then you won't be a Merciful Soul (+20 XP) and might actually hear the combat muzak phoned-in by Sonic Mayhem. While you're at it, don't forget to crawl through all em convenient vents to be an Explorer (+50 XP) because bypassing all the enemies, and level design in general, is so much fun and constitutes as stealth gameplay. You can find a grenade launcher mere minutes after leaving Adam Jensen's uncanny replica apartment (do u gedit??) but nothing over the course of the following dozen or so hours even remotely warrants using it (didn't stop me tho). Can you guess the reason why, my fellow GEP Gun enthusiasts? Besides the fact that you spend most of your time in this third-person cover shooter burglaring into vacant apartments to read emails and raid fridges, obviously.

Featuring Blink from the Dishonored series.
